Insight interface traffic management and QoS

From a traffic management perspective, QoS for an Insight Interface is similar to QoS for a regular port. If required, SLX conventional egress traffic rate-limiting or typical QoS features may be applied to the Port Channel with an enabled Insight Interface. The difference is the QoS configuration is applied to an Insight Interface LAG (port-channel).
Consider the following when you configure this feature:
  • The TM supports egress scheduling, rate shaping, WRED, and ingress buffer management for insight interface.
  • TM egress scheduling and shaping for the insight interface must be configured under a port-channel interface.
  • The QoS configuration is automatically applied to all ports in the port-channel.
  • Follow the same configuration procedures for ingress buffer management and WRED as you would with a standard port.
